Attaching a cherished car number plate to your car, lorry or motorbike is a fantastic way of personalising your vehicle and standing out in the crowd. Buying a private registration number plate in the UK are usually done through the DVLA, a Government agency, and now that they are online it couldn’t be easier. The company’s website lists over 26 million plates, making them a great place to start looking for your personal number plate. With many of us leading hectic lives, it can be difficult to find the time to attend an auction – if there is even one near us which is why it’s great to have this service online. The DVLA also site provides a frequently asked question page and provides helpful information and advice.
License plates have been around almost as long as cars themselves with France being the first to introduce a license plate in 1893, followed by Germany in 1896. Holland was the first country in the world to introduce a national license plate in 1898.
Although the DVLA offers a secure and professional service, private number plates can be purchased from various suppliers such as newspapers and reseller sites, however, all suppliers of number plates must register with the DVLA. Buying a cherished car number plate is an exciting thing, whether you just want to disguise the age of your vehicle or because you want to stand out in a crowd. Of course, the DVLA still hold around 7 public auctions a year in the UK so if you enjoy the exciting and intense atmosphere of these then check out the site for dates and locations.
